Project description

The problem of insufficient access to modern and effective healthcare services for elderly and disabled people will be jointly addressed by the leading Polish and Ukrainian medical institutions in the Podlaskie and Volyn regions. These institutions recognize that the actual challenges and dynamically changing trends require even more efforts in using the knowledge and great experience of project partners to ensure maximum efficiency of care for such sensitive population categories.

To create better treatment conditions, hospital premises in Białystok (PL) and in Lutsk (UA) will undergo modernization. Medical facilities will be adapted to the needs of elderly people and those with disabilities. Specialized medical equipment will be purchased for both hospitals to enable core examinations to be performed directly at the patient's bedside, facilitating independent mobility, speed up recovery and shorten hospital stays. Furthermore, developed methodologies will allow to take care and treat elderly patients with regard to their individual profile and multi-morbidity in different hospital wards. This approach is crucial because specialist care in geriatric wards is currently limited. To address this, direct meetings and online consultations of medical staff during training sessions, workshops and working group works will result in mutual learning, new solutions and a modern approach to the problems. The knowledge thus developed could be popularised in the Programme area.

Thanks to the project, the healthcare for elderly and disabled people, including those who have suffered from wars, will be more efficient and will reduce the average length of stay in the internal medicine ward. The new skills acquired by medical staff through the project, combined with modern medical equipment and treatment methods jointly developed will ensure sustainable and accessible medical practices.
